Rowan Elliott is devastated when her boyfriend, Finn, tells her he’s moving across the country to take over the family business, and thrilled when he changes his mind at the last minute and gets off the plane.

But then things get . . . weird. Finn’s acting strange, and Ro’s getting mysterious phone calls that have her questioning if her boyfriend’s really who she thinks he is. As Ro races to figure out what’s going on, she discovers it’s more complicated than she could have ever imagined.

And if she’s not careful, she could lose her Finn forever.

"I'm not sure exactly what it is," I said, finally. "There's just been all this strange stuff happening today. I mean, maybe it's nothing and I'm just imagining things." I glanced at Lindsay and she nodded in encouragement.

"Okay," I said. "It started this morning, after we got back from the airport.” I told her about the phone calls, showed her the Private Number in my call history.

She examined the phone then handed back. "And you're sure it was Finn."

"I know his voice, Linds. It was him."

Lindsay frowned. "But why? Why would he call you from some blocked number and then say he didn't?"

I collapsed in on myself, clutching my arms across my roiling stomach. "I don't know. It doesn't make any sense. I know it sounds crazy—"

"You are not crazy," she said firmly. And that pretty much summed up our friendship. No matter what, Lindsay had my back.

"But then, a couple of times today . . . " I considered my words carefully. "He'd do something or say something and it just seemed like he was . . . different. It was like he wasn't . . . " I swallowed. "Finn."

Lindsay's eyes widened. "Okay, that's just creepy."

"I know—"

"Like some Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Exorcist kind of stuff." She shuddered.

"I know!" I stood up and crossed to the window, turned and paced back. "I know how it sounds, and I can't explain it. But I know Finn, and something is wrong, Linds. I don't know what it is, but something's wrong."

T.M. Franklin started out her career writing nonfiction in a television newsroom. Graduating with a B.A. in Communications specializing in broadcast journalism and production, she worked for nine years as a major market television news producer, and garnered two regional Emmy Awards, before she resigned to be a full-time mom and part-time freelance writer. Her first published novel, MORE, was born out of a challenge to write a novel in thirty days issued during National Novel Writing month. MORE was well received, selected as a finalist in the 2013 Kindle Book Review Best Indie Book Awards, and won the Suspense/Thriller division of the Blogger Book Fair Reader’s Choice Awards.

In addition to MORE and its sequels, The Guardians and TWELVE, Franklin has penned the Amazon best-selling short stories, Window and A Piece of Cake. Her YA romance, How to Get Ainsley Bishop to Fall in Love with You, is Franklin’s first love story without traditionally recognized paranormal or fantasy elements. Although . . . T. M. is the first to argue that love is the best kind of magic.
